long ago ideas

“When we are tired, we are attacked by ideas we conquered long ago." - Friedrich Nietzsche. Long ago, Joseph Smith and Oliver Cowdery conquered false claims that the Book of Mormon was fiction or that it came through a stone in a hat. But these old claims have resurfaced in recent years. To conquer them again, we have to return to what Joseph and Oliver taught.

The end of SITH - part 1

SITH (the stone-in-the-hat narrative) has many adherents among Latter-day Saints. This is especially the case among young and new Latter-day Saints who are largely oblivious to the teachings of the prophets about the translation of the Book of Mormon.

But we can all see that as Latter-day Saints become better educated so they can make informed decisions, they generally reject SITH in favor of the teachings of the prophets about the Urim and Thummim.

For Part 1, we simply refer to the history of SITH, discussed here:
